About Public Holidays in Yemen

Yemen's public holiday calendar includes both national commemorations and Islamic religious observances. Unity Day on 22 May is the most significant national holiday, marking the reunification of North and South Yemen in 1990, while 26 September Revolution Day commemorates the 1962 revolution. Islamic holidays follow the Hijri lunar calendar and include Eid Al-Fitr, Eid Al-Adha, the Prophet's Birthday, and Islamic New Year. The ongoing conflict since 2015 has significantly affected the uniform observance of public holidays across different regions of the country. Yemen's economy depends on agriculture, oil, remittances from expatriates, and fishing, with the standard work week running Sunday through Thursday and the weekend on Friday and Saturday. Eid Al-Fitr, Eid Al-Adha, and the Prophet's Birthday shift dates each year according to the lunar Hijri calendar, with religious authorities announcing official dates based on moon sighting.

  • National holidays include Unity Day, revolution anniversaries, and Islamic holidays.
